Inspirations

Three generations of Fabulous: my grandmother, great-grandmother, and father







"the Kiss" --Klimt


Florence of Florence and the Machine


Mother Monster

Dita Von Teese



Lana Del Ray

Thought I'd share some of my inspirations.  Most of these have been constant mind-sparkers for my entire life...a few I've only recently learned about, but I suspect they'll stay with me for awhile.  ;)

I hope these few images pave the way for you to create today!  As some of my favorite lyrics from Florence and the Machine go...


(This image [of my eye haha] was featured on my Instagram recently.  Follow me!!  @Spritzy88)

In closing, my favorite SS 13 collection: Dolce & Gabbana.

Off-Orange makes for an On Day



Check out my new BAAAAAAG!!!  :)  
I made such a haul thrifting last night...I found this and another Prada bag.  I hope they're real...  Regardless, they're absolutely lovely!  So even if they're not worth a mint, they're worth having!


I tweeted last night about how 15-degree weather really cramps my style...so when I woke up this morning, I refused to be beaten!  I brought out a skirt, regardless of the ice on the windows.  :)
I've also been missing all the more dated (vintage, retro, etc.) items in my closet.  I enjoy dressing like I live in the here-and-now sometimes, but I mostly identify with vintage fashion.  It's hard to wear my vintage pieces in winter...I'm still trying to find ways.
  
Anybody have any tips/hints/tricks on how to wear vintage outfits in frigid weather?


This skirt really does a good job of showing off a tiny waist...(thank goodness my waist survived the holidays! my thighs certainly didn't, but I think all the good home-cookin' was worth it).

Tell me about your holidays in the comments!  
I have more photos of mine coming...hope y'all won't mind some Christmas in January...
